WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Ford Explorer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The IKT incorporates both the PATS functions and the RKE transmitter functions in a single device.

During key programming procedures, the PATS and RKE transmitter of an IKT are both programmed into the BCM . REFER to KEY PROGRAMMING USING DIAGNOSTIC EQUIPMENT or REFER to KEY PROGRAMMING USING TWO PROGRAMMED KEYS to program the IKTs . Conventional PATS keys can also be programmed to the vehicle if requested by the customer.

Up to a maximum of 4 IKTs can be programmed. If more than 4 IKTs are programmed, INT KEY COULD NOT PROGRAM is displayed in the message center during the key programming procedure and the RKE function of that IKT is non-functional.
